A Ball Of Wool

Yello! I'm a lazy, naive British person (25 yr old) who sometimes attempts to write things but generally gets way too engrossed in the land of fiction. My current obsession is Gravity Falls (way late to that hype train, I know). Also a terrible artist - be warned. Also doesn't reblog very often. Happy trails!

I know I basically never use my Tumblr anymore, but I made a Sonic OC and it got a surprising amount of attention on the Sonic subreddit so I thought 'what the heck' and posted it here too. :P

Like many, I sometimes think what a Silver-centric game might be like, and I decided to make him a proper villain because he doesn't really have any good canon options (since Iblis is more a force of nature than a character, Mephiles is associated more with Shadow at this point, and Eggman Nega is just a worse version of Eggman :V). So here's Alloy - some inspirations include Susie from Kirby: Planet Robobot, Lusamine and Pheromosa from Pokemon Sun and Moon, and MOM from Futurama.

Alloy comes from a version of Silver's future inspired by Judge Dredd, with most of the Earth reduced to blasted post-apocalyptic wastelands after a devastating war between G.U.N. and the Metal Empire (the Eggman Empire after Metal Overlord took over). The majority of the population live in cramped, high-tech arcologies. G.U.N. is technically still in charge but its influence has been weakening, and they were forced to turn to the SYMMETRIX Corporation to help maintain order.

After learning of Silver's strange ability to glimpse alternate timelines, she went to extreme lengths to recruit him to her PsychoNet Initiative - and when he refused, she had him framed for a crime he didn't commit (and tricked Silver into thinking G.U.N. was responsible), forcing him to go on the run. She sees this as only a learning experience for her 'shiny Silver medal' - one day, when he sees what's out there in the wastes, he'll come crawling back, grateful for the 'favour' she did him. Or so she thinks...

I need some people to understand that I will absolutely ship two characters who would absolutely never get together in canon simply because I want to. No I don’t think they’re canon nor will I look for subtext that they like each other. In fact, I don’t even want them to be canon. I just like the art and fanfiction man. Like their shippers low-key got something fire going on and I wanna be a part of that. It really isn’t that deep.

[philtrashnumberunus]

rarepair shippers be like: the real reason they never appear in scenes together is because they'd be making out too hard if they were in a room together. the show couldnt handle it. but i can. here, read this fic...

Another commission I got from the amazing @zillabean ! (A million thanks!)

An illustration of a scene from a work-in-progress Wendifica fic of mine. Let's just say that Wendy takes after her father in a few ways, and Pacifica has no objections whatsoever. :V

They call it the Better World because Stanford Pines got everything he ever wanted

It came at a cost

But he could fix it; he had to. He had no other choice.

Cloning a dead man was difficult.

He kept having to make them younger and younger for them to have even a chance of survival.

But that was ok. He could make up a story. Maybe his brother got into an accident he couldn’t remember. Maybe the only way to save him was to keep him in some form of suspended animation. It was ok. They might not be twins anymore, but that didn’t matter; they’d always be brothers.

The second Stanley didn’t need to know the truth

Besides, Ford was his brother. He hung on to his every word. He’d never guess his twin would lie to him.

—

Basically this is my headcannon for what happened to Stan in The Better World; the original Stanley didn’t make it to far after being sent away with Ford’s journal. By the time anyone thought to look for him, it was too late.

Consumed by grief, Ford creates a second version of his brother. After multiple failed trials, he eventually discovers he can only grow a clone up to a certain age. Ford eventually settles for this child version of his brother.

The clone hatches at 12 years old, and contains all of his memories up to that age. It’s still his brother. And maybe this time, Stanford can spare this new version of his twin the pain he experienced in his “first life”

Special thanks to @presidentstalkeyes for helping me come up with the concept, @stephreynaart for teaching me how to do the lighting, and a shoutout to @tinfoil-jones who’s been making fics that include my Better World concept within them!

Feel free to ask me questions about Stan ii or my Better World concept!

[saucescribbles]

@presidentstalkeyes i made some fanart for your fic, carpet ergo sum :0 it’s swapped dipper and billendin, had a lot of fun making this!!! love the way you described dipper’s thoughts and nervous mannerisms at this part aaa

[presidentstalkeyes]

Lately I've been drawing a lot more than I used to but I never thought to upload it here, so have some stuff!

These are my headcanons on an older Molly McGee and Libby Stein-Torres - I made Libby first for an RP I entered, then threw in Molly for the heck of it.

Libby is a twice-published author, 'Neo-Hippie', and traveling Hauntologist, solving long-forgotten deaths and using the past to gain insight on the present (she's a Hauntologist in the philosophical sense in addition to literally researching hauntings).

Meanwhile, Molly still lives in Brighton, works as an event organizer for town hall, and runs free physical fitness classes at the Bandshell (after Scratch left and Ollie moved out of town, Andrea told her that exercise was a great way to take her mind off things, and Molly being Molly she threw her all into it. That's how she got so buff!). She likes to tell people she can bring the dead back to life.

They're still besties of course, but Libby doesn't have a phone or even a phone number so she's constantly borrowing phones, visiting internet cafes and using aging payphones to keep in touch. Sometimes she even sends letters.

There isn't a day goes by that Molly doesn't miss Scratch, even though she only knew him for a short time. She's friends with Todd Mortenson - reunited with him during one of her fitness sessions - but by then she had accepted that Todd was his own person who deserved to his live his own life, at least until he dies for real and Scratch can truly return. She did joke to Darryl about making Todd exercise himself back to death, though. What, when you deal with Ghosts you get a morbid sense of humour. :V

“Lily!” I hear you all gasp in shock. “You changed your PFP!”

Indeed I did, and here is the full art! Which I had to shrink slightly to make it look good in my profiles :P

Artist commentary below the cut:

Those of you who have read The Case of 100% Normal Feelings (which is my fic with the most hits—thank you, everybody!) will know I HC Irratino as needing glasses. That is pure headcanon, and also pure projection, on the part of me, who both has curly hair and is nearsighted in real life. I also HC he normally wears contacts, but for this art, I gave him glasses because…I could XD The ponytail was done for similar reasons. It’s kind of incredible how just giving him glasses and a ponytail makes Irratino look like a totally different person!

(By the way—if you see any mention of Irratino wearing glasses in other fanfics? That’s not the fandom sharing a single brain cell. That came from me. That is them taking inspiration from me. I’m so proud *sheds tear*)

I’m still not sure about this one, frankly. I feel like the head’s too big for the body (and that the proportions feel off in general), and the hand was an absolute pain. Partway through the sketch, I wanted to scrap the whole thing and start over ^^; But hey, it’s done, and I’m proud enough of it to make it my new profile pic, at least XD (I also said I wasn’t going to draw the ears next time so I wouldn’t have to draw stars, and then I drew him in a ponytail and forced myself to draw the star. I did that to myself. I am not ashamed to admit I used the symmetry ruler to make it look semi-decent :P)

I think if I had to say, my favorite thing about this drawing are the glasses. They came out beautiful, if I do say so myself 😌 Though drawing the folds in his shawl was also fun. As was getting to glitter up his hair tie ^^ Anyway, that’s all from me, maybe one day I’ll reach the hallowed ranks of “likes looking at her own art” XD

Just realised I forgot to show off the doodles I did for the @mystery-twin-mystery-bags ko-fi doodle day! Here they are :D

This was really fun! Glad I could be a part of it ^^

Pre-orders for the Mystery Bags close on the 15th, so if you haven't got one yet and want to there's still time if you hurry!
